Logitech Transporter

Posted by FrankC (A) on August 4, 2016 at 14:58:05

I'm more of a vinyl guy. My digital front end consists of a transport and DAC from the 1990s. Someone just gave me a Logitech Transporter. I'm trying to understand how it works and get it up and running.

I've done some research and there were many reviews that just talked about how it sounds, but not much on how it works exactly.

These are what I've learned so far. Can you experts tell me if they are correct?
1/ If I want to play songs from a NAS storage, I still need a computer/laptop to run the software to act as a bridge/interface;
2/ The computer/laptop can be in a different room as long as it is connected to the network, but must be on;
3/ I still need to use the laptop to create a playlist;
4/ I can only select songs from the playlist on the front panel/remote. I will not be able to go look for songs directly from the NAS.
5/ Has anyone successfully run it through a Win 10 laptop? It seems to be unstable? Will Win 7 laptop work?
